Perfect tutorial! We have the same machine and it was awesome seeing it in action.

I definitely loved seeing the machine work before I got the hang of mine. Thanks for your comment! If there’s anything specific you’d like to see let me know

@@bayarmadethis How do you embroider w/o sewing the shirt together?

[@wolffireofficial017]

What machine do you use please? Wanting to get into creating my own clothing brand and this certainly looks like a more easier and possibly more money saving than all the other options I've looked into

[@embroideryseymia]

Thank you🎉

[@LeonardoMacedoEMB]

Looking foward for new videos! Just a recommendation as someone who works for quite a time with embroidery Try to avoid using the spray, will gumm up your machine making dirt quicker, and helps with the needle wearing out quickertoo because the glue makes the needle "stick" to the fibers, wich make the needle hotter than the normal. Other thing, it is aways nice to hoop the entire stabilizer too, in your case your design is just satin stitches, kinda light so you can get away with it, but hooping a sheet of stabilizer makes super good to the stitch quality, and helps a lot when doing denser designs, shirt fabric is confortable/not dense this makes it worrible to hold any side tensions, this is why is important to have the stabilizer hooped too.

[@bayarmadethis]

Thank you so much for your constructive criticism, I’ll make sure to take your points into consideration for the next tutorial :)

[@Tanjaaraus]

Thanks for the easy to understand tutorial! I've had my machine for 4 months, but we are still not on great terms. But watching this, and other tutorials I realize that I am going for too big of designs too early. and don't use nearly enough stabilizers! I knew the issue was me and not the machine, but when you know nothing - then knowing what you do wrong is hard hehe. Going to practice a bit more on flat and relatively stable fabrics tho

[@bayarmadethis]

It’s actually a common thing I see, people buying a machine and waiting for a while to use it. You’re not alone in that at all, haha. I’m glad I could be of help, good luck with your embroidery!

[@bayarmadethis]

My favourite comment haha

[@Barbarajhere]

Thank you for simplifying this t-shirt processing. My question is please. Once you measured via the hoop grid should the center chest logo /text be placed via the second hold center front? Hope this make sense. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks.

[@bayarmadethis]

Hey, I understand your question perfectly! What you have to take into consideration is the size of your design. A nike swoosh for example is small enough for the top one, but if your design is significantly bigger you’d have to use the second hold center. The reason for that is that it’s the center of the design, so it has enough space around it to embroider. Hope I explained it properly, if not let me know and I’ll try again

[@Barbarajhere]

@@bayarmadethis Excellent! Thank you

[@liv-cz2vl]

Hey could you mention what kind of needles you use ? 😊

[@athomewithbear]

Interesting way to mark a pocket! I’m going to try that! Also, does your needle get sticky from the spray?

[@MadeByTriniLena]

Awesome video, where did you get the center marker from?

[@JGallis]

What kind of stabilizer is that in the back? And where is the link for everything you used?

[@inglewoodred5281]

What oz tear away do you use?

[@kiwibearsmom7550]

Why do you use a dissolvable stabilizer on the front? If I were to use cut-away would I also be able temporaily glue on the back side as you did for the tear away? I am having to learn to embroider for work, so videos like this help. Thanks!

[@delhooters245]

Dissolving stabilizer is used on certain fabrics such as fleece, minki or terrycloth that has some "body" to the fabric. It makes the embroidery stay on top, rather than sink into the fabric "body".

[@monicajackson7266]

Also if you wear you don’t tear it. Stretch fabric need stability and you need a knit needle. @@delhooters245

[@hamzaelghazi3120]

First of all thanks for the tutorials, I just found your channel which looks absolutely fantastic! And I'm wondering to buy NV870E which avaliable in my country amazon or NV880 for a foreign cuntries! And is there a bug differences? Thanks!

[@bayarmadethis]

I’m not familiar with the NV880, sorry

[@MortenBN1988]

There's a lot of hoop burn. How do you et rid of that?

[@user-vp3jk9qc2g]

Waar koop jij de soluvlies? Je hebt een iets dikkere variant zie ik.

[@jeremyisabelle1250]

Do you take custom orders?

[@Edith2920]

I tried this with brother SE-400 and my fabric got stuck inside the machine

[@TryASMRWithMe]

So just to be clear, once you wash it after all that the stabilizer in the front dissolves?

[@bayarmadethis]

That is correct!

[@neisha06ify]

You can even pat it with a wet towel and it will dissolve

[@tehetchasketch2008]

do u know if i can use my brother embroidery machine like this?? its hard researching this thpe of stuff

[@chynannchyn4040]

Hey I would like to venture in this business. What's the best beginner friendly cost affordable embroidery machine would you recommend?

[@bayarmadethis]

It’s a really broad question depending on your budget, any single needle brother embroidery machine will be good as a first machine. What kind of designs are you going to make and in what size?

[@danielsabh]

Hi how's it going? What's the name of that you use to center?

[@bayarmadethis]

Hey Daniels, I’m doing great and hope you are as well! If you look up “alignment ruler t-shirt” then you should find similar products. Let me know if that helped you!

[@patriciavogel23]

What needle number is best for tshirts? Thanks

[@bayarmadethis]

I always use an 80/12 needle for shirts and crewnecks.

[@patriciavogel23]

[@jimflap8842]

What's the tension you use and thank you

[@bayarmadethis]

Hi Jim, The tension I used was -2 machine and +4 regular tension

[@DianeEWING-vc7ye]

What tension do you use? Both Embroidery Tension and Regular Tension?

[@bayarmadethis]

Hi Diane! I generally use the standard +4 tension because I find it to be the best for this combination of garment and stabilizer. My advice is to try out different tensions whenever you work with a new garment and stabilizer to see what looks best. Eventually you’ll get a feeling for what works!

[@fredlaau6464]

How much does such a sawing machine cost?

It differs between 400 (second hand and small) to thousands. Id recommend checking out the PE600/800

[@stevensimons4677]

Is glue required on the front, water soluble stabilizer, didn't see any..?

[@bayarmadethis]

When you use the water soluble stabilizer you don’t need to add any glue, basically the first few stitches that your machine makes will keep it in place. Just make sure that it doesn’t wrinkle because it’ll affect the result.
